    INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF SCIENTIFIC & TECHNOLOGY RESEARCH VOLUME 9, ISSUE 01, JANUARY 2020 ISSN 2277-8616 Performance Studies On Automated Solar Powered Air Cooler/ Air Heater Manish Nayak, Manjunath H N, Madhusudhan M Abstract: So many types of air cooler cum air heating system available in the market which is working on AC and DC power. Here we design a model which is automated using micro controller arduino nano and temperature sensor. Which is maintains the temperature automatic. In this paper we collect power from sun light and stored in lead acid battery during a day times and also we save the energy by using controller. Whenever we required this power is used to operate the air collar/air heating system. Evaporative cooling accomplished by direct contact of water with flowing air. When hot and dry air passed through the soaked pad temperature of air get diminished with increase of specific humidity, moisture content in a pad get evaporated by use of latent heat of evaporation from air and heating of air is done by convective heating. Required temperature conditions are programmed in microcontroller to accomplish the satisfying cooling/heating effect.

  • Direct Fired Heaters Brochure
    Direct Fired Heaters Convection Heater A convection style heater offers the benefits of a direct fired heater, while eliminating some of the drawbacks associated with radiant heat transfer. Radiant heat transfer can be undesirable in certain temperature sensitive applications as radiant heat transfer tends to be more intense and unevenly distributed around the coil surface. Sigma Thermal’s convection style direct fired heater utilizes a separate combustion chamber and flue gas recirculation to reduce combustion chamber temperatures to 1,400F, thereby minimizing the impact of radiant heat transfer to the process coil.

  • Space Heater Guide Did You Know Heating Your Home with Electric Space Heaters Can Easily Double Or Triple Your Electric Bill If
    Space Heater Guide Did you know heating your home with electric space heaters can easily double or triple your electric bill if you are not careful? Even though they are typically small in size, and often touted as 100% efficient, electric space heaters can use a lot of electricity. Most space heaters use on average 1,000 to 1,500 watts of electricity and cost about 13¢ an hour to operate. While that may not sound like much, it can add up quickly if heaters are left on for several hours a day. Leaving one space heater on for 8 hours a day for a period of one month could easily add an additional $30-$35 to your monthly electric bill. Following are some good tips to help manage your electric bill if you use electric space heaters in your home. • Do not heat rooms that are not in use. Space heaters should only be used in rooms you are occupying and should never be left unattended. Remember to turn off heaters when you leave a room to help you save money on your electric bill. • Appropriate uses for space heaters. Most space heaters work best in areas that can easily be closed off to retain heat, such as a small bedroom or office. They do not work well in areas that cannot be closed off to the rest of the home, or large rooms as the heat will dissipate away quickly. • Select the right space heater. Not all space heaters are created equal. Some space heaters are designed to evenly heat a whole room, while others are better at heating only what is directly in front of them.
